Olive Garden Italian Restaurant

A group of us had lunch to celebrate a relative's birthday. The hostess was very helpful and accommodating. The manager even came to speak to us about how they prepared special dishes for a few of us who were gluten sensitive. She was very friendly! Our server, "C", was super nice and patient because at times we were all chatting and distracted. The two people that brought our meals were super sweet. One was a lady with her hair pulled back. I wish I could remember her name, because she was very helpful, but everyone was super nice! As for the food, I was pleasantly surprised with how good everything was because honestly--Olive Garden hasn't been in my top ten since the 90's when it comes to favorite restaurants, but this one may be the "go to" location for my family and future birthdays. My dish (the grilled chicken margherita) tasted just as good as it looked in the picture! I was going to get a glass of wine but then I noticed that the peach raspberry iced tea was about half the calories, and it was really good! I never finish my drinks, but I did today. I will say that there were a few little brown leaves of lettuce in my salad, but I just tossed them to the side, no big deal. It was delicious.

Love the gluten free options in pasta.
